What if I told you... that one man... refused to back down... from a plastic container designed to hold a popular sports drink?

We might not have enough juice here to do a full "30 for 30" film, but there is enough to do a six-second "Punch-Out" video! Pirates utility man Sean Rodriguez beat the hell out of a Gatorade cooler after the benches cleared during Wednesday night's NL wild-card game. It was only right to recreate the bout in classic video game format.

In this corner, fighting out of Pittsburgh by way of Miami, he plays for the Pirates and kind of looks like an actual pirate, Sean "Serpico" Rodriguez!

And in this corner, fighting out of Gainesville, Fla., he's an inanimate object and is unsure why baseball players keep unloading on him, Gator "The Quencher" Ade!

Let's have a clean fight guys. No punching below the belt or spout. And please, no use of weapons such as bats or strawberry flavors — because that's just gross.

It's over! Your winner... oh, somehow it's still Jake Arrieta. Man, that dude is on fire right now.
